Greenville, Aug. 27.?James Wash-;
ington, charged with having committed
an assault upon a 14-year-old j
white girl near Pelzer several weeks;
ago was today convicted in the court
of general sessions and sentenced by j
Judge J. W. Devore to die in the electric
chair September 24.
The trial was one of the shortest
on record for capital cases in. this
court. The -boy was arraigned at j
11:15 o'clock this morning and byj
12:45 p. m. the judge had concluded j
his sentence.
The crime aroused great indigna-;
tion among citizens at the time. The
alleged assailant was brought to the
's
Greenville -jail immediately after the j
crime and was thence rushed to the'
state penitentiary at Columbia just a 1
few minutes before a large crowd of
Pelzer citizens appeared at the jail
fully armed, demanding the prisoned, j
After being permitted to search the!

SUFFRAGE BECOMES LAW.
* Nineteenth Amendment to Constitu- j
tion Officially Takes Its P|ace.

Washington, Aug. 26.?Without:
pomp and ceremony, Secretary Colby j
today signed the proclamation declar- j
ing the woman suffrage amendment;
"to all intents and purposes a part of j
the constitution of the United States."
The secretary's signature was affixed
to the proclamation at his home!
after he had received from Governor
Roberts of Tennessee the certificate
that final favorable action on the
'amendment had been taken by the
legislature of that state completing!,
the required 36.
"The seal of the United States has
been duly affixed to the certificate and i
the suffrage amendment is now the
19th amendment to the constitution,":
Secretary Colby announced on reach-1
ing his office two hours after he had j
placed his signature to the proclama-j
tion.
Mr. Colby was awakened at 3:45
o'clock this morning by Charles L. i
Cook, state department employee,!
who notified him that the Tennessee j
certificate had arrived. The secretary:
then called F. Nielson, deparment
solicitor, to examine the Tennessee
papers, also instructing the solicitor j
to bring the proclamation to the see-1
reary's home at 8- o'clock.

SAYS lassi.W CZAK SHOT.
Massacre Hulled Oil' in liascmcnt of
Prison House.
London, Aug. 2 7.?All possible
doubt that former Emperor Nicholas,
of Russia, and his family were assassinated
in the .basement, of the
prison house at Eksterinburg 011 the
night of July 16, 191S, seems to be
dispelled by the accounts of two in
dependent investigators wnicn are
I
published here. One is printed by
the London Times and was written
by its former Petrograd correspondent,
Robert Wilton. The other appears
in the magazine, Nineteenth
Century, and is from the pen of
Capt. Francis McCullagh, of the British
army, who before the war was a
widely known newspaper correspondent.
Both spent several weeks at
Eksterinburg and talked with natives
and soldiers who witnessed the affair
through the window of the ill-fated
house. Both writers agree on the
important details of the story.
The victims of the massacre, they
say, numbered eleven, being the former
Emperor, his wife, son and four
daughters, Dr. Botkin and three servants.
The assassination was arranged
by Yurovski, the jailer in charge of
the deposed royal family, and was
carried out by twelve soldiers. The
Times account says these men were
Letts, but Capt. McCullagh declares
they were Magyars, who had been
placed on duty instead of a Russian
guard because the Bolsheviki feared
p "Russian cmild not be trusted for
the work. .
Capt. McCullagh's, story says all
the doomed party except Nicholas
were on their knees crossing themselves
as Yurovski shouted the order
for the execution of "Nicholas Romanoff,
the bloody, and all of his
family." The former Czar then stepped
quickly in front of his wife and
children, saying something wfcich
could not be heard and was shot by
Yurovski. Then the remainder of
the/ party was shot down with revolvers
and later the soldiers bayoneted
the bodies, he said.
A Wonder.
"He's the most intelligent man I
know."
"What! Binks?"
"Yes., He doesn't think he could
write a League of Nations treaty that
wo.uld be perfectly satisfactory to
every one."
